Does this system send images in the email alerts when motion is detected or just alert (no snapshots) ?

The system can send you the screenshot to you when motion detection is triggered

The only feature for notifications is email based. I use it for my Barn due to recent theft, and the time delay on the camera is little slow. for someone walking or standing still it works but for some one running its delay is to slow.

The Email is a bit of a pain to set up. However, once you get it to work it works fine. I set it to give me alerts on a motion event. Which it does perfectly.

You can set it up to take a motion activated snapshot and send it to your email.

It does have motion detection and the sensitivity can be adjusted. And it has alarming systems for all devices which are compatible. Even email alarms.

I do not see an option for that. It can FTP snapshots when motion is detected. That said, I have an IPhone app called IP Cam Viewer that will record video from any of my web cams.

Yes. I have my system set to motion detection so that it doesn't record all the time. Be sure to check the recordings periodically so that the memory/hard drive doesn't fill up too quickly.

You can set it to record on at schedule an take photos by motion detection on a schedule and it has an option to send an email... I have not used the email though so not sure how that works but there is a place in it's setup to enter the information for that.

Dropcam support is in beta. You can set up a motion detector that triggers a burst of photos. You dont need a dropcam cloud subscription for this functionality although im not sure if photos stored on smartthings cloud and for how long.

I beleive there is a delay and it will only alert if there's motion from my experience. I'm not using it right now because of too much traffic so I can't be too specific. So intentionally no.

In case that I wasn't clear: to get email alerts from this camera, this is required.... Never thought this could cause a problem before I placed the order... probably I have to return it....

The camera has motion detection built in but the notification is via email (it actually sends a few screenshots of what set it off in the notification which is nice). If you have your email setup with push notifications or periodic fetching then it'll pop up on your phone that way.

Yes the unit has motion detection. You can vary the sensitivity and you can also specify the parts of the picture that should be sensitized. That way you can ignore things that normally move like bushes and trees, rocking chairs etc. Yes it does E-mail or FTP to a location you define. I have also found apps for he iPhone that work quite well remotely. it is called MEyeProHDV4. I think I paid a couple bucks for it, but I saw that there was a free version as well. User interface on the box has lots of features and seems to work ok. I had some confusion setting the time, but it was not hard to make it display the correct time. The daylight savings time is a bit weird. Overall the unit has been doing well over the last couple years. No failures, camera mounts are as tough as I would like, but they have not broken.

The camera is triggered by motion, yes. It then saves the pic on the camera card then transfers to the storage box. There is NO alert feature with these cameras, just storage.

The alerts come as emails. You can also set it up to view live video from anywhere also.

On mine the motion detection and email notification do not work. When I looked for a firmware update it appears they have abandoned it (unless they have done something in the last few months). I generally use it with a third party app such as WebCam XP to send me email on motion, but that is annoying as you have to run your computer all the time and when it freezes and you're away, your dead in the water.
